So happy to be part of Carla's: ' Creatin' in the Sticks' Stitching Sunshine Blog Hop. The projects were to include some of the color yellow, so here are two from me. The 17" square pillow cover has three scattered LPs with yellow centers, on a white with black music notes background. Keep reading for more info and for comments.
The second project is an 7 1/2" X 23 1/2" quilted wall hanging- it's a scrappy yellow spool of thread! The "thread" has closely-spaced walking foot stitching, and both of the spool ends are echoed. The background is a white-on-white dots fabric, with free-motion loops quilting design. Yellow binding really makes it look framed, doesn't it? This wall hanging has already found a home in the [new] sewing area.
Be sure to visit all of the other bloggers to see all of their awesome projects. Thank you Carla for hosting this fun Blog Hop, and spreadin' some sunshine!

That long spool is fun, and a good idea. But you forgot the list, so we can find your fellow hoppers today.
ReplyDeleteAdded the list. 'Apologies for that :)
DeleteI DO remember those vinyl LPs, and have a collection of them in my basement. Your pillow and wall hanging are both wonderful, and I especially like the spool!
ReplyDeleteYour spool looks right at home in your sewing spot!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty -- great idea on the vinyl LP's - actually 2 of my daughters have recently purchased several LP's and are playing them in their houses!!
ReplyDeleteNice projects! I especially like the pillow with the music notes. Both make me smile!
ReplyDeleteI love the spool wall hanging. Me, myself and I are arguing over making a few of those for the Studio.
ReplyDeleteGrwT projects!
ReplyDeleteLove the LP idea. Your wall hanging is pretty and fresh.
ReplyDeleteBoth pieces are so artsy and full of sunshine! I've got a box full of LPs but no machine to play them on. It's fun to look through them and reminisce about the good times. Thank you for sharing both of these and brightening our day!
ReplyDeleteLove your sunshine-y projects, especially that spool of thread. I am now thinking of a using that for some favorite short strips!
ReplyDeleteBoth of your projects are SEW perfect for the Hop, Danice! One showing off just a touch of yellow and one showcasing the color. Thanks for sharing them with the Hop!
ReplyDeleteYour yellow spool of thread is great! The music pillow will always put a smile on your face. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteLove them. My brother collected and work at a big LP store when they were a thing. He sold off his collections years ago, and wishes he had never done it now. Great way to celebrate a sunshine with your spool quilt too.
ReplyDeleteGreat projects! I love your LP pillow. It would look perfect in a rec room, maybe with some old albums hung on the wall. (Most of my records are from the Beatles, too.) I really love your yellow spool of thread, too. A little sunshine for your sewing room.
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of the LP's. Great job on the design. The spool of thread is just wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing them with us.
Love the record pillow and I think I need that size of a spool of thread sometimes. I use a LOT of black. lol
ReplyDeleteGreat projects.
Danice, that LP pillow is so cute! What a great idea. I'm old enough to have had LPs and I think there may still b one or two around here. Love the sunny yellow spool, too. Such a nice shot of sunshine!
ReplyDeleteThank you all. Oops, I did forget the list of bloggers. There is a link to Creatin' in the Sticks, though. Visiting all of your blogs today. Happy day to you all.
ReplyDeleteLove the LP cushion. Very creative.
ReplyDeleteYour LP pillow and spool of yellow thread are fun! Therd are still lots of LPs at our house, but our son who is 36 actually listens to them!
ReplyDeleteMusic and stitching, certainly what I consider sunshine in my life. Love your projects, Danice! That pillow is a great idea and your quilting is perfect. Your wall hanging is pure joy. Thank you for the fun!
ReplyDeleteGreat projects, thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteIts nice to see you here! It has been a long while! I love the pillow with the music notes and always a wall hanging. Very sweet. I hope you are doing well and it was lovely to see you. HUGS
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing these sweet sunny projects. I love the colours of the thread and not only do I remember playing my LP’s I remember the little plastic centre that made to put in the 45’s so we could play them on our record players 😉 Carol
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of an LP quilt. Great job.
ReplyDeleteWonerful projects! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletePretty spool and love the lp pillow.
ReplyDeleteI like the spool, but I really love the LP pillow, such a cool and modern look for a pillow.
ReplyDeleteTwo wonderful projects. They both are filled with sunshine.
ReplyDeleteAwesome projects. The LP pillow is awesome. But your tall spool is fab too.
ReplyDeleteRunning behind, but really like your long spool quilt!! It made me smile!
